Problem/Motivation

During the usability study, some participants, once they realised they had chosen the wrong field settings, deleted the field. They did not realise they could move back to a previous step in the workflow.

Proposed resolution

Redesign the 'wizard-style' process of creating and configuring a field.

Remaining tasks

Design the wizard workflow indicators, bearing mind the wizard indicators on the installation screen.

User interface changes

Clearer signposting for the field creation workflow

API changes

None.

Data model changes

None.

  • Usability

    Makes Drupal easier to use. Preferred over UX, D7UX, etc.

  • Novice

    It would make a good project for someone who is new to the Drupal contribution process. It's preferred over Newbie.

  • Needs screenshots

    The change alters the user interface, so before and after screenshots should be added to document the UI change. Make sure to capture the relevant region only. Use a tool such as Aviary on Windows or Skitch on Mac OS X.
